Musk being best buds with the President of the USA is legit friggin’ scary, speaking as a foreigner.
Then you remember that Trump, and it becomes terrifying.
This reminds me of so many comments from Americans saying how embarrassing Biden is as a president and that no one takes 🇺🇸’Murica🦅 seriously anymore under the Democrats. It was weird to read as a foreigner because I loosely remember what Trump was like. And now here we are again. Hope Americans are proud.
Nahhh… we’re pretty fucking disappointed… Least everyone I know with half a brain.
I wish I knew someone who was disappointed. The only two people in my life that aren’t Trumpers are my daughter and her fiance. Everyone else thinks that gas will get back to $1/gallon and food prices will return to pre Covid levels on Jan 21.
What will they think when those things don’t happen? Some conspiracy shit?
Cognitive dissonance
They are fucking wild honestly.
Honestly, in my social circle we’re all kinda treating it like this… strange, self-inflicted, natural disaster. Like we can’t even really joke about it, still. It’s like we all know it’s gonna be bad, the only question is how bad it’s going to be. There’s a lot I’m hoping is over-reaction, but honestly that’s a pretty shitty thing to hope for and a hard hope to maintain all things considered.
Those were probably fake accounts
Welcome to Walmart. I love you.
Caravan of Fools comes to mind…
The dark and distant drumming
The pounding of the hooves
The silence of everything that moves
Late at night you’ll see them
Decked out in shiny jewels
The coming of the caravan of fools
Like the wings of a dove
The waiter’s white glove
Seems to shimmer by the light of the pool
Some dull, blinding winter
When you can’t help but lose
You’re running with the caravan of fools
Love and devotion, deep as any ocean
Don’t play by anybody’s rules
With your carousel of horses
And your unforeseen forces
You’re running with the caravan of fools
Caravan of fools, caravan of fools
You’re running with the caravan of foolsJohn Prine
Saving this picture, in case I ever eat something poisonous i can use it to throw up immediately.
McDonald’s Unhappy Meal
Nightmare blunt rotation
Kennedy is not looking forward to the cabinet mushroom trip.
The White House has one of the best chefs and kitchens in the world, and this dumbass will be ordering McD’s and KFC for 4 years.
Hopefully the ecoli gets them all.
I hope so. Less cost to the taxpayer, and the high calorie and sodium count will send Trump to an early grave.
The taxpayer doesn’t pay for his meals, actually. Came as a surprise to the Obamas they said once.
2014 link: https://www.theguardian.com/money/us-money-blog/2014/nov/28/obama-bill-white-house-thanksgiving
Didn’t look to hard for the Obama quote, but Nancy Reagan’s reaction is in that one.
I heard about the President being billed for services in an interview with Laura Bush.
Oh the McD orders will be on top of everything. The kitchen will just throw away a lot more food.
Do you want President Vance? This is how you get President Vance.
At least that mf would be predictable.
Would he? I’m terrified of his ability to double down on obvious bullshit even when presented with facts directly countering his claims.
As bad as Trump is, I’m almost more concerned about the people who saw his first clown show and thought either “I have got to get in on this” or " I can use this to accomplish my goals. "
In 4 years, though, I can bet Vance would leave if he lost the election. He doesn’t have the spine or charisma to do any showboating and grandstanding like tRump.
I’d at least be fairly confident Vance wouldn’t seriously suggest nuking a hurricane.
I’m not sure Vance is any better.
Not sure he’s any worse either. Ugh.
There is a cockroach effect for some people when it comes to medical matters, like cancer gets them instead of the other way around.
This was the exact sentiment that crossed my mind. The amount of money these dipshits have available and they’re eating that crap? I don’t even believe it. This HAD to be a photo op to make the idiots believe “Wow they eat what I eat” before they rolled in the burnt steak with ketchup and whatever else they actually prefer.
Nah it’s probably legit. Trump is famous for eating like trash. His usual order is reported to be two Big Macs and a Filet-o-fish, but I only see one Big Mac on his tray so maybe he’s on a diet.
He already scarfed down the others.
Trump actually loves McDonald’s and eats it all the time.
Remember, this is the guy, who tried to sell steaks under his name, because “he knows steaks”, and also admitted to liking them well done with ketchup.
also admitted to liking them well done with ketchup
Oh. Oh god. What the fuck. And rural Americans voted for that? That’s Iike if Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel, and the pope thanked him while personally repainting the entire thing in an awful vomit-green color.
Yeah, but what about the promotional and kick back opportunities lost? You have to think about profits…
the better to clog his arteries with.
Not a single sauce opened, no bites taken, nothing removed from an annoying tray lip and placed on the table like a real person. No sign whatsoever that they are actually eating this junk. The half eaten fries are staged as eating without the ketchup that is right there on the tray is quite unlikely.
This is a staged ad. It is meant to be a message to others in corporate America, and for marketing to convenient idiots to quote the Russian term.
It’ both. The before eating pics are always more PR friendly. Trump loves McDonald’s because he has no taste
Apparently he eats so much McDonald’s because he’s paranoid about being poisoned and thinks sending someone there to get his food anonymously makes him more safe somehow. It makes you wonder where that paranoia came from once you also learn that this was first reported seven years ago.
Apparently I like Warren buffet he will eat it.
Not sure about the rest of them
Strap the fuck in, American people of the Fediverse. This table of lunatics is about to make your lives much harder and more dangerous.
Hate to say it, but the US isn’t the only country that is fucked. The impact is going to be felt worldwide and in a harsh way.
We’ll see how long places like Ukraine and Taiwan will last.
Ugh, the more I think about it the more I realize how bad it’s going to be.
There could be (rare) upsides. If they go through with 50% or higher tarrifs, electronics prices in EU might come down due to dumping.
oh, you guys are definitely getting dumped on.
The man whose brain worm died of starvation.
I hope they all have strokes.
Given the average age (and diet), there’s hope yet
Are those quarter pounders? Listeria is on the table…
make escherichia coli great again
Trump will be dead in a year and you guys will have president Vance to care for you 😆
Where is Yagami-Light when we need him?
Is that Leonard Leo in the back? (Right side)
That’s the master vampire! If we stake him, the rest lose their powers!
No, that’s Mike “My son and I know each other’s porn habits” Johnson.
Dang it. He’s not the master vampire.
Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House
Fun fact: RFK jr plans to ban most of the ingredients of the junk food he is currently eating
“The stuff that he eats is really, like, bad,” he said on [a] podcast, in an episode that aired Tuesday. “Campaign food is always bad, but the food that goes onto that airplane is like just poison. You have a choice between—you don’t have the choice, you’re either given KFC or Big Macs. That’s when you’re lucky and then the rest of the stuff I consider kind of inedible.”
– RFK Jr. a few days ago
Edit: to be fair, his expression in this picture does make him look more than a little disgusted
That’s because most places don’t serve raw milk… yet.
So he’s proposing banning seed oils and similar?
Yes he is, he wants to ban high fructose corn syrup and a lot of other things too
We’re going to see how that plays in Congress. Way too many special interests.
